Plane Crash Mountain hike

For my first real Meet Up. I joined two other hikers on an early morning hike up Air Plane Crash Mountain, which is the site of a WWII B17 crash during a training mission.
I reached the Mountain before the sun did

The hike was a little over two miles round trip depending on how close to the trail head you park. My GPS didn't track the way up, so the map below only has the trip down, but it is an out and back so the route was the same.

The debris field from the crash runs from about half way up to and ends about three fourths of the way up.
